Fortinet
Application
AI orchestration platform automating security and network operations: alert triage/investigation, network configuration validation, and threat hunting, integrated across Fortinet's management products.
Discovers, controls and governs AI use across enterprise environments: shadow-AI detection (6,500+ AI application URLs), AI-application visibility (FortiView for AI), and AI-workload data-loss prevention.
Cloud-native data-loss-prevention agent combining machine-learning content/context analysis with a GenAI-powered assistant that summarizes and contextualizes incidents for insider-risk and data-egress protection.
Email security gateway combining machine learning, LLM-based content analysis and image recognition to detect phishing, BEC and other threats across the email lifecycle.
Uses AI-based behavioural analysis of network traffic to detect lateral movement, data exfiltration and privilege escalation without endpoint agents, sold as on-premises appliances and VMs or as FortiNDR Cloud.
Sandbox appliance/service for zero-day and advanced-threat detection, using AI-powered analysis (a purpose-built ML engine plus artificial neural networks) alongside static and dynamic analysis to accelerate verdicts.
Platform
Applies AI/ML analysis to telemetry from Fortinet network devices to detect pattern anomalies and automate network troubleshooting.
HiddenLayer
Application
Protects the orchestration layer connecting AI coding agents to tools, memory, files and enterprise systems, detecting agentic-specific threats like memory poisoning and prompt injection with platform-aware controls for Claude Code, Cursor and GitHub Copilot.
Runs adversarial attacks against a customer's own models to find where they break before an attacker does.
Inventories every model, agent and AI workflow running in an organisation, so security teams know what exists before defending it.
Watches models in production and blocks attacks against them as they happen.
Scans models an organisation builds, buys or borrows for tampering and malicious content before they reach production.
Platform
Security platform purpose-built for AI systems: discovers models and AI supply chains across an organisation, simulates attacks against them, and detects runtime abuse such as model theft, data poisoning and adversarial inputs.
No counterpart
Fortinet sells these in a stack layer with no product recorded for HiddenLayer yet — nothing on the other side to compare them against.
Infrastructure service
A runtime security proxy deployed between applications and LLM endpoints that blocks prompt injection, jailbreaking, model poisoning and excessive-consumption attacks and enforces context-aware data-loss prevention on AI traffic.
